In most cases, the UTM can automatically determine the connection speed of the WAN port of the
device (modem or router) that provides the WAN connection. If you cannot establish an Internet
connection, you might need to manually select the port speed. If you know the Ethernet port speed of
the modem or router, select it from the pull-down menu. Use the half-duplex settings only of the full-
duplex settings do not function properly.
Select one of the following speeds from the pull-down menu:
• AutoSense. Speed autosensing. This is the default setting, which can sense 1000BaseT speed at full
duplex.
• 10BaseT Half_Duplex. Ethernet speed at half duplex.
• 10BaseT Full_Duplex. Ethernet speed at full duplex.
• 100BaseT Half_Duplex. Fast Ethernet speed at half duplex.
• 100BaseT Full_Duplex. Fast Ethernet speed at full duplex.

1492 Bytes for PPPoE connections.

and should not be done unless you are sure it is necessary for your ISP
connection.

Use Default Address radio button.
Select the Use this computer's MAC radio button to allow the UTM to
